Dr. Gina Loudon - http://drginaloudon.com - creator of the original BUYcott of Whole Foods, is supporting the weekend.  She has been pro-active in her support of the Arizona Business community, and the Buy Arizona! Now Weekend!!.  "Tony and Sonja have the right idea, and put together the right plan."  said Dr. Loudon.  "What could be more important, right now, than showing Arizona our economic support, and having fun in the process?"
